Also, by listening to your peers’ presentations, you can broaden your knowledge of other research fields and learn about how to create materials and give presentations.
Research Start
Full-scale research activities finally begin.
More details
You’ll decide on a research theme while consulting with professors and seniors, based on your interests and goals. After determining your research theme, you’ll acquire the necessary knowledge and skills while advancing your research. If you have any questions, feel free to consult with professors and seniors as you progress step by step.
Summer Camp (Midterm Presentation)
Every September, we hold a summer camp with all laboratory members participating.
More details
During the camp, midterm presentations for graduation and master’s research are held, where you’ll present your research content and progress so far. After the presentations, fun recreational activities are held to deepen friendships among laboratory members. This is a major event that values both research and refreshment.
International Student Welcome Party
We hold a welcome party for international students newly joining the laboratory.
More details
At the international student welcome party, we introduce ourselves and deepen exchanges through discussions about research and hobbies. Through communication that transcends language and cultural barriers, you can encounter new perspectives and values.
Year-End Party
We reflect on the year and socialize through the year-end party.

New Year
Happy New Year! This is the final sprint toward graduation!
More details
The New Year period is a crucial time to finalize your research, with thesis submission and presentation approaching.

Graduation Ceremony
The graduation ceremony is held as a milestone in your university life.
More details
At the graduation ceremony, each person takes their next step while reflecting on the past. Some might go on to graduate school, while others might venture into a new environment in society. Whatever path you choose, what you’ve learned in the laboratory and the connections with your peers will surely be useful in the future.
